I’m Not That Kind of Talent Chapter 316

316. The second war has begun, XX (5)

So, just kill the other corps commanders and gather here. Of course, it doesn’t make sense to set up a meeting place where you’ll meet Deon Hardt…

Everyone will probably get together as they please, but you never know. D’Vellania tapped near the location where Deon Hardt was scheduled to fight.

The eyes of those gathered focused on her fingertips as she made it clear that this was the meeting place.

“But no matter how careless you are, the corps commander is the corps commander, so the longer the battle goes on, the more difficult it will be. At that time, just ignore it and come to the meeting place. “Just reducing the number of corps commanders in the castle is a good save, and it’s okay if you can’t do that, so there’s no need to overdo it.”

“Is it okay if I come with a tail?”

“It’s a bit awkward to name it Tails, but…yeah. “There may be someone who came to deal with it first, and similarly, if there are demons who were pushed back from the battle and came this way, we can join forces to deal with them.”

In the latter case, both sides were pushed by the enemy and fled. Even if we join forces, the number of enemies will also increase.

The representative of the 10th Corps frowns slightly, as if he is not very trustworthy. Nevertheless, Develania was confident.

Because war does not follow mathematical formulas. War is when 1+1 can become 2, 4, 0, or minus.

“So let’s practice collaborating with each other in battle. If the synergy is right, they will have more power than just numbers. “I would like to mobilize the entire army to practice, but that would be difficult because it would attract too much attention, so at least we can practice fighting by combining the strength of those gathered here now.”

Not to mention Myers, the corps commander, and the other two are representatives of each corps, so they will definitely do well in battle. If the people gathered here get along well, they will eat half of it.

“I’ll find a suitable place. “I would like to just treat it as a light sparring between the 1st Corps commander and Deon Hardt and do it openly, but we don’t usually engage in one-on-one sparring.”

Small one-on-one encounters are common even among corps commanders, but it is rare for three or more representatives of the corps to spar together. It will attract attention in many ways.

Finding the right place is one thing, and getting out and gathering without being noticed is another. …It might be a bit annoying. DeVellania lightly stroked her hair.

“The basic plan is to divide teams randomly and engage in 2-on-2 sparring. Afterwards, the three of us will have to work together, so we will also conduct 3-on-1 sparring. Of course, the other one will have to suffer a bit.”

“What are you going to do with the four of us guessing?”

“Hmm… I guess we’ll just have to guess the main attack route and position appropriately and look forward to the three of us taking turns practicing joint attacks. And…”

I rolled my eyes and looked through the information that came to my mind.

The 2nd corps used thread to set up traps, the 8th corps used shields, the 10th corps used cavalry, and the 12th corps used spears.

“…There was more to guess.”

“?”

At the very least, there should be no such foolish thing as others getting caught in the 2nd Corps’ thread. I would not be able to turn a blind eye to the shame of our allies becoming entangled and destroying themselves.

“Everyone knows the information about their corps, right? “During battle, we will coordinate the commanding of the corps and the joint attack, at least verbally, to avoid conflict.”

“…Previously.”

12th Corps Commander Myers, who had been listening silently, opened his mouth.

After losing his adjutant, his aura became overly heavy, and he spoke slowly while looking directly at Devellania with low-set eyes.

“Is there any possibility that we might encounter Deonhard before we are fully prepared?”

As she said, it is not enough to deal with the corps commanders, so if they gather near where Deonhardt is fighting, there is a possibility that they will run into him who has finished the battle first before he can round up all the other corps commanders and gather his troops. That would make things a mess.

“well.”

Although the resolute gaze that did not expect the slightest deviation may have seemed burdensome, Develania lightly shrugged her shoulders.

“Rather than having to deal with so many heroes like Deon Hart, it would be faster if we captured the castle first and went there. Unlike siege warfare, battles between corps commanders will last without a break, so they won’t take very long. “Probably when he came out, all the fighting would have been over.”

It looks like the human world is fully prepared to deal with the ‘Hero’, but it can’t end so quickly. She dared to be sure.

“So let’s stop worrying and focus on our goal.”

He kills the legion commanders who get in the way of his goal, kills Deon Hart, who must have been weakened by the battle with the heroes, and kills the Demon King with the strength he saved.

It was overwhelming for us just to focus on this.

***

Now that Develania had branded Lirinel as a priority and attacked her, she lightly rolled her eyes and looked around.

Idelia, the commander of the 4th corps, who is most likely to become an obstacle, went to clear away the hero who may be an obstacle at my request, and the 3rd and 4th corps, which do not have a commander, are confused by the unexpected situation and are unable to do anything.

The situation became a complete conflict between the 2nd and 11th Corps.

‘It would be neat if we deal with Lirinel and Idelia like this.’

At Develania’s hand gestures, invisible threads embroider the air. Lirinel, who instinctively sensed that there was danger, used magic to move her position. Devellania, who looked up at her using attack magic above her head, quickly walked away and clicked her tongue lowly.

A stone the size of a human head crashed into the spot where I had been standing just a moment ago.

‘It was actually a loss to destroy the magic suppression camp.’

Just look at that crazy thing. It’s really disgusting to see them hovering in the air to avoid close combat.

‘It’s a shame there’s a plan for aerial warfare.’

If not, what would I have done?

I also seem to have narrowed my field of vision because I was focusing too much on one thing. He snapped his fingers with a disapproving expression. The thread stretched out and the magic power within me harmonized.

A transparent stake made of magical power is inserted into the air, and a thread is wrapped around it. Lirinel’s magic and tentacles, which intuitively sensed that he was doing a useless trick even though he couldn’t see it, fiercely struck down as if to keep him in check, but De’Vellania avoided and blocked all of this, step by step creating a trap.

‘The biggest obstacle is movement using magic.’

All you have to do is make it dangerous no matter where you go. Then, if you come to this side, which is the only safe space, it’s good because it’s easy to deal with me.

The more Develania’s fingers move, the more restrictions are placed on Lirinel’s movements. Lirinel, who had part of her hair cut off by the thread that had already taken over the top of her head, rolled her eyes in search of a safe space.

‘Where should I move?’

consolation? Or take the risk and go near Develania?

It would be safer to move upward, but there was no way that thorough demon could have installed only one layer of thread above its head. If you are going to move, it would be better to move higher. If you move incorrectly, something on your body may fall off.

The problem is that the effects of the snowflake sticks still remain in the sky. Will I be able to protect my body enough to fight against that powerful cold?

‘…My opponent is not only Develania.’

Casting a strong warming spell will solve the problem, but it would be difficult to waste magical energy here. I was already consuming more magical power than I had calculated during the battle with her.

…decided. Lirinel glared at Develania. The moment she disappeared in the air and appeared one step away from Develania.

Faba Park!

Small needle-like blades rained down on the two.

“What is this…!”

Develania, who was swinging her thread as if she was waiting because the speed was too threatening to just leave her alone, and Lirinel, who was about to stab the opponent with her sharp tentacles as soon as she moved as if she was not going to give him a chance, also quickly stopped her actions and ran away.

The thread that Develania had put so much effort into installing had long since become loose as the owner holding the end moved away.

“…Tsk.”

Develania, who retrieved the thread, looked at where the blade had come from.

“It will come a little more slowly.”

“I’m so sorry about that. “I guess I should have moved as I wanted.”

A crisp voice cut through the tension-filled air.

Idelia, who arrived earlier than expected, smiled brightly as if the 3rd and 4th corps, which had been in a state of confusion due to the clash of two corps commanders, finally contacted their commander. At that unlucky situation, a rather sharp voice was thrown in the form of a question, as if arguing.

“Have you dealt with the hero?”

“okay. “After receiving the call, I overexerted myself and killed him.”

“Why did you do that? “You could come leisurely.”

“Who do you like?”

Beneath a smile disguised as leisure, sharp words are exchanged with tense tension.

Develania, who was looking at the smiling Idelia, curled the corners of her eyes proudly.

“Don’t disturb. All I want to do is punish the traitor who prioritized Deonhardt over the Demon Lord.”

“I wondered why this was happening all of a sudden…”

Was it because of this? Lirinel, who was listening, slightly wrinkled her expression.

It is nothing new that I follow Deon-sama, but it is problematic that such a blatant attack was made and that the reason was that ‘I prioritize Deon Hart over the Demon Lord.’

Even if you’ve been very anxious, there’s no way you can make a move like this without confidence. It looks like he got some confirmation from somewhere…

‘…Could it be that ‘the order’ given by Master Deon came through?’

Kill the corps commanders…

Just as Lirinel’s expression was about to become serious, a somewhat sarcastic voice spoke up.

“You’re so clever at making excuses. But pretty packaging isn’t everything.”

“Isn’t that a lie?”

“okay. “I guess it’s not a lie.”

A not-so-favorable gaze passed by Lirinel.

He also turned his head again for a moment and Idelia sneered, looking at Develania.

“If Lirinel is a traitor, then you are a traitor.”

“….”

“I knew you would hit it one day.”

“…under.”

Haha ahahaha!!

Laughter spread across the chaotic sky. With everyone’s eyes focused on the sudden laughter, D’Bellania’s laughter fell down to her shoulders, but then stopped and raised her head. Cold eyes glared at Idelia.

“This is why people who handle information are annoying.”

There is no need to be quick-witted in places like this.

***

That crazy bastard did something wrong.

This was a thought that came to mind as soon as Idelia, who had been rushing forward after hearing the news of the conflict between Lirinel and Develania, witnessed the situation in person. The unfolded fan covered the lower part of the body, as if hiding emotional turmoil.

‘I was expecting it.’

Even though he looks like this, he is a corps commander who handles information, so he is quick-witted.

So I knew. The fact that Develania was hostile towards the Demon King and the fact that she was busy moving around as if she was plotting something.

The intention was obvious without having to dig into it. I’m sure he’s planning to punish both Deonhardt and the Demon Lord.

‘That’s stupid.’

There is no way you can rebel against the devil and survive.

Idelia knows that magical power is not everything to the Demon King. I knew very well that I should not look down on everything that the Demon King had learned over a long period of time.

The attacks that a tiger can make include not only biting with its teeth, but also attacks with its front paws. Its claws are sharp and its front paws are powerful, so how can we look down on it for not being able to use its teeth?

In addition, in a situation where it is not even possible to say for certain how much the Demon King’s magical power has decreased, does it make sense to rebel against the mere fact that he has ‘hidden his magical power’?

‘It would have been better to take the side of either the hero or the demon lord.’

Of the two, it would have been better to choose the one I disliked less and be hostile to the other under his protection.

That’s why Idelia decided to join the Demon King’s side.
